Summary
On snapping up semantics of dynamic pixels from moving cameras. The project aims to develop a suite of original models and algorithms for processing and understanding videos captured by moving cameras, and to establish the mathematical foundations for deep learning-based computer vision to provide theoretical underpinnings. The project expects to generate new knowledge that will transform moving-camera computer vision with step-changes in visual quality enhancement, compression and acceleration ....On snapping up semantics of dynamic pixels from moving cameras. The project aims to develop a suite of original models and algorithms for processing and understanding videos captured by moving cameras, and to establish the mathematical foundations for deep learning-based computer vision to provide theoretical underpinnings. The project expects to generate new knowledge that will transform moving-camera computer vision with step-changes in visual quality enhancement, compression and acceleration technologies, and solutions for fundamental computer vision tasks. A new concept of feature complexity for measuring the discriminant and learnable abilities of features from deep models will also be defined. The outcomes of the project will be critical for enabling autonomous machines to perceive and interact with the environment.Read moreRead less
Towards in-vehicle situation awareness using visual and audio sensors. This project aims to characterise driver awareness, activity and interactions with other vehicle occupants using visual and audio cues from internally mounted sensors. Road accidents cost Australia an estimated $30 billion per year and tragic loss of thousands of lives, yet the vast majority of severe vehicle crashes are linked to driver fatigue or distraction. The expected project outcomes include advanced artificial intelli ....Towards in-vehicle situation awareness using visual and audio sensors. This project aims to characterise driver awareness, activity and interactions with other vehicle occupants using visual and audio cues from internally mounted sensors. Road accidents cost Australia an estimated $30 billion per year and tragic loss of thousands of lives, yet the vast majority of severe vehicle crashes are linked to driver fatigue or distraction. The expected project outcomes include advanced artificial intelligence to infer and predict dangerous driver and passenger behaviour. This has the potential to significantly benefit society by advancing autonomous driving capabilities and reducing driver-induced accidents and fatalities, ensuring that every driver, passenger and pedestrian arrives home safely at the end of each day.Read moreRead less
